    Sit and real

    The decor of this place is adorable, you can literally spend hours studying or working in one of the big pillows on the floor, but coffee wise -- not good. I ordered a double espresso, and I know we cannot rely on American coffee but this was just strange, I was served two espresso shots into two different cups. My friend ordered a smoothie, that was certainly a better choice. They have WiFi and a few books to be bought at the store.

    Bottle-feeding moms need not apply. Nothing weird about this little incentive program.

    Oasis has been open for nearly a year, yet they've not garnered enough reviews to hit double digits. For a place that has a sensational rating of 4.5 stars, how can that be? It can't be, because it is a false representation of the scene. Everyone has high hopes for new shops and restaurants that open at CarrMill, but the truth is, it's difficult to survive here. Oasis might, though, because it hits some of the requisite wickets. It caters to a certain customer type, someone who is looking for something specific. You'll know what I mean when you walk into this cafe that looks as though it was outfitted from a catalog for those on a hot zen pursuit. If you're looking for faux enlightenment amidst high-dollar waspy clothing shops, Oasis might fit you like a fine pair of ironic hipster pants. As for my experience and what I wanted, I visited because I saw an ad on a hot day for a real fruit smoothie. If there is a surprisingly sparse drink item in this town of trendy diets and farmers' markets, it is the fruit smoothie. What could be more refreshing on a typical humid NC day? Nothing. So, imagine my joy. Then, imagine my disappointment when I spy the makings of my drink through the wizard's curtained kitchen: standard bottled concoctions, blended together. Let's pretend that I didn't see what I thought I saw. Perhaps they pre-blended in order to preserve the serenity of Oasis. Regardless, the serving size was small for the cost, and the taste was less like just-blended fresh fruit and more like the textured too-sweet sludge at the bottom of a Naked juice if you neglect to shake before opening. But, skip that. I just don't care for the atmosphere. It feels pretentious and fake. They originally advertised themselves as being electronics-free, but they gave that up after the first two weeks of being open, so now they look like Starbucks or Open Eye, filled with glowing screens and pale complexions. So much for being unique and bucking trends. In fairness, Oasis isn't a horrible 1-star experience, but it isn't for everyone. Some places are, some places aren't, and Oasis fits the latter category. ----------- Addendum: It pains me to 2-star a place that has a fair amount of work put in to it, so I wanted to visit again, with some objective others, before finalizing this review. We stopped by on Monday only to discover that there is no oasis for the Monday-weary. That and they penned in a time change: opening at noon, not 11. So, we stopped by again on Tuesday, at 12:15, but the place was dark and locked. Not opening on time, I guess because they're too enlightened to follow a clock unlike us office drones who are desperate for...an oasis.

    Impressive vegan selection. Breast feeding friendly.

    Ginger peach oolong setup.

    I could live here. No really...I want to move in! Robert is so nice and knowledgeable. If you tell him your name, he will remember it. We came in 2 days in a row. The first day I had the ginger peach oolong tea. It came in a whole set up instead of just a cup, which I loved! The second day, I had Kava, sambar, and a lemonade. All good (the sambar was delicious). The ambience inside is so calming and pure. If I had to give a critique, it would just be that the menu needs updating. There are items on there that are no longer offered and that can be disappointing when you get excited about something. I can see this becoming a weekend stop for hubby and I.

    Amazing ambiance and feel, it was a calming/relaxing vibe I got from the restaurant.

    See all

    Returned to Oasis and had another lovely time. The menu has been expanded with other vegetarian items. The owner is pleasant and sweet.
